La Salle University, Private Catholic university in Logan neighborhood, Philadelphia, United States
La Salle University is a private Catholic university in the Logan neighborhood of Philadelphia, United States. The campus covers roughly 130 acres and includes residence halls, sports facilities, libraries, and several academic buildings from different decades.
The Brothers of the Christian Schools founded this institution in 1863 as a college. It gained university status in 1984 and expanded its range of degree programs and research opportunities afterward.
The campus features several postwar-era buildings arranged around a central plaza with lawns and mature trees. Students gather there before classes and after lessons for shared activities.
Visitors can move freely around the grounds and explore the public areas of the libraries and art museum. The campus lies near several bus lines and offers parking for guests close to the main buildings.
The art museum holds a sculpture by the 20th-century English sculptor Elisabeth Frink. This work complements a collection spanning the Renaissance to the present day and is accessible to visitors.
